Lepas Sekolah with Atilia: Moving abroad, education in Australia, and studying medical research

🦘 While some Malaysians eventually move to study abroad, Atilia began her journey earlier than most - moving to Australia during her secondary school years. This move not only necessitated a change in geography but an adaptation to a new culture, education system, and sense of independence at a formative stage of her life. 🔬 In this interview, Atilia dives down under the reality of studying in Australia, the differences between their education system and Malaysia's, and her degree in medical research. Whether you are thinking of making the leap overseas or just curious about life beyond the Malaysian classroom, this conversation is packed with remarkable takeaways.
